Golf is a difficult game to master and can be very frustrating for beginners. By following these simple golf tips, any beginner should start knock knock off of their game.

If you are brand new to golf I highly recommend that you take some lessons from a pro before you develop bad swing habits. It is much easier to learn the fundamentals of the golf swing correctly than it is to "unlearn" bad habits.

Here are a few simple golf lessons for beginners that will save a lot of frustration on the course.

  • Relax! Golf is fun. Let it be fun.
  • If you are just learning the game of golf, stick with one iron and use it. I suggest a 5 or 6 iron. A lot of the confusion in golf is where to place the ball in your stance for different length clubs. By becoming familiar with one club you take that confusion away. There is absolutely nothing wrong with using a six iron off of the tee if you advance the ball. Go to your shot and hit the 6 iron again. Some people naturally learn to bump and run on short shots to the green and a six iron will work for that as well.
  • With all that said, you may want to learn to use a pitching or sand wedge as well as an iron. If there is a bunker in between your ball and the green, the bump and run strategy falls apart.
  • You can learn to finesse the ball later. For right now aim for a spot one inch behind the ball and keep your eye on that spot through your entire swing. Your eyes should be looking at the tee box until you finish your back swing.
  • This may sound silly but try it. Do not try to hit the ball. Instead, try to make a good golf swing and let the ball get in the way. This will allow you to relax and think about your swing instead of killing the golf ball.

Out of the mountains of advice I got when I was learning many years ago, these beginner's golf tips are ones that helped me the most and have helped many people knock strokes off their game since.
